Copper hair, on your own photo first.

Copper is a bright orange-red that reads warm and lively. It is one of the most noticeable changes you can make, so it is worth seeing on your own face first. See it on your own hair in seconds, before anyone opens a tube of dye.

Is copper right for you?

Who it suits

Warm and neutral undertones, freckles, green, blue and hazel eyes. If your skin flushes easily, a softer, browner copper is often kinder than a bright one.

What to ask your colourist

A level 7 copper, or ask how bright you want it: strawberry, true copper or deep copper. From brown hair it usually needs some lightening; from blonde it is often one appointment.

Keeping it fresh

Red pigment fades fastest of all. Cool water, colour-safe shampoo and a copper gloss or colour-depositing conditioner every few weeks keep it bright.

Questions

Copper hair colour

How long does copper hair last?

It is the quickest shade to fade: expect a toning or gloss appointment every 4–6 weeks to keep it vivid.

Can I go copper from dark brown?

Yes, though it usually takes lightening first. Ask your colourist how many sessions your hair needs.

Will my real colour look like the preview?

Take it as a direction, not a promise. The salon result depends on your current colour, your hair’s condition, the products and your colourist, and the light in your photo changes how a shade reads.
